Just to play Devils Advocate here, Prove the intent, with the conflicting eye witness statements, prove that there wasn't a fight that left the shooter feeling that he needed to defend himself.

You could certainly argue manslaughter (lawyers could help me out here), but I have my doubts that they could convict on first or even second degree murder.
It will largely depend on where the first shot went in, if it turns out kid was shot in the back then they aught to be able to fire up old sparky.
